“Elina was awesome! She did a great job of helping us relax and enjoy a fun walk through Amsterdam with a new friend who happened to bring a camera along to capture great moments!”

“This was my third Flytographer experience, and I couldn’t be happier. The last two were on vacation in Rome and Nashville, and this one was in Los Angeles, where we live. The photographers have been top notch every time — they were fun to work with, made us all feel comfortable, and the resulting photos are phenomenal.”

“This was our second Flytographer shoot and this experience reaffirms why we love working with them; the process is easy, enjoyable and a brilliant way to commemorate a trip and city. I recommend them to all my friends who are traveling!”

“Flytographer was a great way to capture memories that actually include everyone! Even moms, who are so often the family documentarian. It was a wonderful experience.”

“Gabriela was wonderful. Not only was she a skilled photographer, but she was one of the highlights of our entire vacation. We felt immediately comfortable after meeting her and her pictures turned out incredibly. We have not stopped talking about our experience with her since we met. Thank you so much!”

“Erin was incredible to work with from start to finish. She gave great direction to our not always so photogenic group and we were left with photos that I will treasure forever! We felt relaxed the entire time, going into it my dad didn’t know what to expect but he even commented how much fun he had. That’s coming from a guy who is typically reluctant to family photo sessions.”

Pike Place and Post Alley
“Peter was absolutely fantastic! He brought us to amazing parts of Grand Teton National Park which we otherwise would not have seen on our own. We had a lot of fun on our shoot! He is very creative and the photos are the most incredible photos we have ever had taken! Highly recommend Peter! Quality from start to finish and we received the photos super fast too!”

Frequently Asked Questions
How and when will I get my photos after the shoot is done?
We will send you an email with link to your online gallery within five days. There will also be a link in that email to leave feedback and tell about your experience, so please be sure to let us know!
Can I choose which photos I receive in my gallery?
The Flytographer packages include only the ‘best of the best’ from your shoot – as industry practice, your photographer removes any photos with funny faces, closed eyes, and improper lighting. Due to the nature of candid photography, not all shots that are taken will turn out as planned, but if you have any ‘must have’ shots, we would be more than happy to prioritize those shots so that they end up in your final gallery.
Can I buy all of the shots that the photographer took?
Unfortunately not. Not even if you ask really, really nicely… 😉 We know that it can take dozens of snaps to get exactly that perfect version of a shot, and since our photographers shoot in RAW format this would mean editing hundreds of extra not-perfect shots rather than focusing on delivering you the best of the bunch. This leads into our other, even more important, reason: we only want to send you shots that we think you love.
All this being said… if you thought there were shots you remember being taken that didn’t make it into your set, let us know and we can reach out to your photographer and find out what’s possible. (Please note: under no circumstance are we able to provide images in raw format.)
Can I see the photographer’s portfolio before I book?
Of course! You can view each photographers portfolio from their city page! Select your destination here. When you have chosen your favourite photographer check their availability with our concierge team by submitting an inquiry.
How long in advance should I book my shoot?
We suggest you book at least a week in advance, although we will attempt to accommodate last minute requests (but no promises). The ideal time frame to ensure you get your preferred time/date is at least 4 weeks in advance.
